Clinical Trial Summary

Objectives: To further evaluate the immediate, long-term and cumulative effects of Tian Jiu Therapy on asthma. Hypothesis to be tested: The efficacy of Tian Jiu Therapy on asthma is also long-term and will be accumulated. Design and Subjects: Recruiting 167 asthma participants who received Tian Jiu Therapy under the primary study of HKCTR-1128. All subjects should be above age 13 and receive the same Tian Jiu Therapy, 3 times per year from 2013 to 2015. A one-year follow-up after the last Tian Jiu treatment will be conducted. Study instruments: Modern USB PC-based Spirometer and Fingertip Pulse Oximeter. Interventions: Plastering some stimulating Chinese herbal cubes on certain acupoints in the three hottest days of each year, for three consecutive years. Main outcome measures: Pulmonary Function Test, Blood Oxygen Test, Quality of Life and Standardized Questionnaire on asthma attack and symptoms will be administered before treatment, after treatment of each year and one-year follow-up after the last treatment. Data analysis: All the parameters will be analyzed, the physical improvement (Cured, Remarkably effective, Effective and Ineffective) will be recorded, and the differences in different treatment courses will be investigated and compared with previous data obtained in the primary study of HKCTR-1128 by using standard statistical analysis. Expected results: The effect of Tian Jiu Therapy on Asthma is not only immediate but also long-term and will be gradually accumulated. The Tian Jiu Therapy will acquire better efficacy on asthma if this treatment was conducted more years continuously.
